It is also part of Canada's Nunavut Territory. Ellesmere Island is one of the world's largest, most frozen, least populated, and most remote islands in the world. The largest island to explore in Canada's High Arctic is Baffin Island (which offers extraordinarily eye-watering views). It is possible, although difficult, to visit Canada's Baffin.
Scientists discover large Arctic polynya Polarjournal
Fossils from Ellesmere Island, Canada provide evidence of a warm, swamp-like environment around 52 million years ago, despite half the year spent in Arctic winter darkness. In this study, Miller and colleagues identify two new species , the first primate relatives ever reported from this ancient Arctic ecosystem.

Introduction. The discovery of fossil plants and vertebrates in Eocene rocks on Ellesmere and Axel Heiberg islands in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago has profoundly impacted efforts to model ancient climates and assess the paleobiology and paleobiogeography of early Cenozoic vertebrates living at high latitudes [1-4].During the greenhouse conditions of the early Eocene, Ellesmere hosted a.

On Ellesmere Island, with a latitude of 80 degrees north, Shubin finds a fossil fish with a flat head. He is in the Arctic because the Arctic region is one of the best places to reliably find fossils. With new technology that allows paleontologists to scan potential field sites before digging, fossils are in some ways easier to find than they.
